INSURANCE FRAUD INVESTIGATIONS

Insurance Fraud Investigator

An insurance fraud investigator typically investigates cases in which individuals seek compensation for false claims.

An insurance fraud investigator is usually the professional working for an insurance company for the purpose of making a determination about whether a claim was made falsely. Disability claims often involve an individual claiming that his or her quality of life is hindered, or bodily movement limited, due to chronic pain. The claim of chronic pain is frequently challenging for one to prove from a medical standpoint; therefore, insurance companies are at times in a bind, causing them to turn to private investigators.

Types of Fraud

The insurance industry usually delineates two major forms of fraud: hard and soft.

  • Hard fraud is a case in which an individual intentionally fabricates a story for anticipated gains.
  • Soft fraud is when a person embellishes what should have been a legitimate claim.

For example, falsely claiming that your Rolls Royce was stolen from the driveway would be considered hard fraud. Soft fraud would be falsifying information on your insurance application.
